Starting with being handed over to the Imperial Concubine, building a family with a thousand-year hi

This powerful move can only be unleashed by a late-stage True Martial Realm expert who has cultivated a True Spirit.

With the True Spirit possessing him, Xi Changfeng's aura surged, his combat power was greatly enhanced, and the True Spirit aura around him became increasingly dense.

Xi Changfeng, who was initially at a disadvantage, instantly turned the tide of the battle and began to launch a counterattack.

He wielded his longsword, unleashing even more and sharper sword beams and wind blades, sweeping fiercely towards Su Mu like crashing waves, with overwhelming momentum and astonishing power.

Su Mu chose to withstand the attack head-on without flinching.

Although he successfully withstood the opponent's attack, he was also sent flying far away by the powerful impact. The golden true fire around him was almost completely dispersed, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

The golden sword beams he unleashed with his ultimate killing sword technique could no longer repel Xi Changfeng; he could only barely withstand the opponent's fierce attacks.

"Late stage of True Martial Realm, truly lives up to its reputation, indeed formidable."

Su Mu sighed inwardly, his expression growing increasingly serious.

He had only recently condensed his primordial spirit, and his cultivation level was still at the early stage of the Grandmaster realm, while his opponent was a genuine late stage True Martial realm cultivator.

The difference in their cultivation levels was more than a whole major realm.

The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the gap between two adjacent major realms, and the greater the difficulty of challenging those of higher realms.

Moreover, his opponent was a top genius from ten thousand years ago, born into the powerful Tianwu Sect. His cultivation techniques, skills, and combat experience far surpassed those of ordinary late-stage True Martial Realm experts.

If he hadn't cultivated the Imperial Path Primordial Spirit, the difference in power and quality alone would have been like an insurmountable chasm.

In order to maintain his advantage and not be suppressed by Xi Changfeng, Su Mu took out a Grade 5 Dragon Essence Pill from the system warehouse without hesitation and swallowed it directly.

The pill dissolved instantly upon entering his stomach, its immense medicinal power spreading throughout his body and merging into his true essence and imperial aura, causing his aura and combat strength to surge simultaneously!

The two engaged in another fierce battle in mid-air.

In an instant, golden and cyan true fire intertwined and collided, sword light and wind blades flew everywhere, and energy fluctuations swept in all directions. The entire sky above the palace was shrouded in intense battle atmosphere.

The two fought fiercely, evenly matched, and for a time it was impossible to determine who was superior.

During this time, both of them tried to attack each other's souls in an attempt to win in one blow, but they were ultimately unsuccessful—both of them had high-grade soul-type magic treasures guarding their seas of consciousness, which could effectively resist soul attacks.

On the other side, the Meteorite Puppet and Gold also engaged in a fierce battle with Su Feiyang.

Holding a long sword, Su Feiyang continuously displayed the exquisite sword techniques of Xichuan Sword Pavilion. As a genius disciple of Xichuan Sword Pavilion, his swordsmanship was extremely skilled, sharp and cunning.

He fought two opponents alone and still managed to gain the upper hand, handling the situation with ease.

However, the meteorite golem's material is extremely tough and impervious to blades and spears, which gave Su Feiyang quite a headache.

The Meteorite Puppet had already released the golden true fire that Su Mu had infused into its body beforehand. It held the low-grade earth-rank longsword left behind by Situ Chengjun, making its attack power extremely strong and enough to pose a threat to Su Feiyang.

Jinzi, who was not good at fighting, was not idle either. He kept spewing out golden demonic light and golden flames. Although the power was not too strong, it could still play a certain role in causing interference.

It wouldn't be difficult for Su Feiyang to dodge Jinzi's attack.

However, as a flying beast, Jinzi has a natural advantage in aerial combat. Its agile and nimble movements allow it to easily dodge Su Feiyang's sword attacks, making it difficult for him to concentrate on dealing with the Meteorite Puppet.

With the meteorite puppet relentlessly pursuing him, Su Feiyang had no chance of capturing the gold on his own.

Clearly, Su Feiyang miscalculated.

In his mind, Su Mu was no match for Xi Changfeng. In order to deal with Xi Changfeng, Su Mu would inevitably join forces with the Meteorite Puppet. At that time, he could take the opportunity to seize the gold without lifting a finger.

However, the current situation was completely different from what he had imagined, which made Su Feiyang more and more anxious as he fought, and his frustration grew stronger.

"We can't keep dragging this on any longer!"

Su Feiyang made up his mind and no longer hesitated. He immediately used his spirit to transform into a sword and entered a state of oneness with the sword.

Instantly, his body was enveloped by a massive sword light and shadow, his aura surged, and his combat power was qualitatively enhanced.

He no longer paid attention, concentrated all his strength, and launched a fierce attack on the meteorite golem. Sharp sword beams slashed towards the meteorite golem with astonishing power.

The meteorite puppet could only desperately parry, and soon it suffered damage all over its body, and its movements became much slower.

Meanwhile, the battle between Su Mu and Xi Changfeng was gradually coming to a conclusion.

Having consumed the Grade 5 Dragon Essence Pill, Su Mu grew stronger with each battle. The golden true fire and lightning arcs around his body became increasingly intense, and the power of his sword strikes grew ever stronger.

However, Xi Changfeng's possession by the true spirit could not last for too long. As time went by, his aura gradually weakened, and his combat power also declined.

Xi Changfeng knew in his heart that if the fight continued like this, he would eventually be defeated by Su Mu, and might even lose his life.

He has to run away now!

If the effects of the true spirit possession wear off, his combat power will drop significantly, and he might not be able to leave even if he wanted to.

Moreover, he didn't want to risk his life against Su Mu here, only to end up fulfilling Su Feiyang's despicable wish!

The two sides had clearly agreed to join forces to deal with Su Mu. Su Feiyang kept saying that he would personally kill the family traitor, but when the fight actually started, he went to capture that golden-feathered bird. He was truly hateful and despicable!

Su Mu sensed Xi Changfeng's thoughts but did not pursue him.

He saw that the Meteorite Golem was about to collapse, and if he didn't go to its aid soon, it would probably be completely destroyed by Su Feiyang.

Su Mu flashed and instantly rushed to the side of Jinzi and the Meteorite Puppet.

But it was too late—the moment he arrived, Su Feiyang, in a state of perfect harmony with his sword, shattered the meteorite puppet with a single strike, and fragments of the puppet scattered everywhere.

"Damn it!"

The effects of the fifth-grade Dragon Essence Pill were still raging within him. Su Mu was burning with anger and unleashed his full power. He swung his Purple Geng Spirit-Slaying Sword, and a golden sword beam containing immense power slashed straight at Su Feiyang.

Su Feiyang's speed is far inferior to Xi Changfeng's.

Faced with Su Mu's fatal blow, he secretly felt a sense of foreboding, but he could only grit his teeth and swing the long sword in his hand to defend.

"Xi Changfeng actually ran away?"

Su Feiyang was filled with astonishment and disbelief—could it be that even the top genius of Tianwu Sect ten thousand years ago, a powerhouse in the late True Spirit Realm, was no match for Su Mu?

clang!

The two longswords collided violently, producing a deafening roar.

Even in a state of perfect harmony between man and sword, Su Feiyang's longsword was still shaken off his hand by the immense power of Su Mu's sword strike, flying heavily to the ground some distance away.
